I was determined to be bad, but I went straight to the Basketball Hall of Fame

Chapter 45 Confidence is the best weapon
The big difference between Min Congda and before crossing is that he is very confident now, the self-confidence that comes from the son of the system.

During the three months in the United States, Min Congda discovered that self-confidence is very important in order to get along here.

The United States is a very cruel and highly competitive society. Everyone must be able to sell themselves, and self-confidence is the best stepping stone.

From the moment he accepted the system task, Min Congda has always been full of self-confidence. He dared to command a team even if he could not speak English fluently, and act recklessly in an unfamiliar field.

After all, it's hard not to be confident as someone who's been mediocre and not very good at everything when your mission is to destroy rather than create.

Picking up girls is the same thing. When you do everything possible to date a girl and want to hold hands with her, you will cringe and cringe. What to do after getting started, whether to get married, whether to have a child, what is the last name of the child, where will the child go to school, what major to study in the future...

When you think about all this clearly, the girl has already been seduced by another boy, and if you feel unwilling, you go and ask, this boy is not as good as you, not as tall as you, not as handsome as you, and not as good as you.

Why are girls willing to be nice to others?Because when you hesitate after thinking about it, others are already chasing after you, no matter whether you succeed or not, you will have a chance if you chase.

Don’t chase, unless you are Wu Yanzu or Xiao Lizi, someone will take the initiative to post it, otherwise just stay there and fantasize slowly, read novels and movies and go YY.

Min Congda has a profound lesson about this. Although his conditions in the past were not good, they were not so bad that people would hate them. If you put in a relationship well, you can still get true love.

It's a pity that it's not fate, birth, or external appearance that hinders him, but the countless hesitation in his heart.

This time Min Congda got the hang of it, and when he saw the person he liked in the crowd, he didn't think too much, and was not afraid of embarrassment or rejection, and walked towards the group of young people with an empty wine glass.

"I'm done drinking, can I have a drink with you? If you don't mind."

Before the group of young people agreed, Min Congda cheekily squeezed into the booth, found a gap and sat down.

This group of young people was very friendly. Although Min Congda's arrival was a bit abrupt, he accepted his joining and poured him a glass of whiskey.

Min Congda took a sip. He didn't like to drink whiskey very much. He always felt that there was a smell of kerosene, and the taste was too smooth and greasy.

He prefers strong alcohol with a rough taste, which can bring pleasure to the sky.

But the purpose of his coming here was not to drink. He observed it, and there was only a white young man with blond hair between the seat he was sitting and the female Bodhisattva he was looking at. Could it be the male companion of the female Bodhisattva?

Unlike, because although the two are sitting together, they are not close and keep a distance.

When Min Congda squeezed in, she moved aside to avoid touching Jin Suifa, which meant that they were not lovers.

That would be easy, Min Congda endured the kerosene smell of the whiskey, and drank it down in one gulp, "It's a great wine, but I still prefer rum or tequila. Open a bottle and it's mine."

So he asked for a bottle of rum, and Min Congda poured another glass. Without hesitation, he directly raised his glass to the girl he liked, and said, "Tonight's most eye-catching star in the bar, you lit up The dark night sky in Los Angeles led me here."

As soon as a person is confident, he starts to know the whole words. In the past few months, he has been the general manager, and Min Congda speaks in a way.

Even if the girl is not interested in Min Congda, who can refuse such a straightforward compliment?

The girl raised the wine glass in front of her, poured some gin, and said, "I don't drink very well, drink a little, thank you for your compliment."

The girl behaved decently, with a hint of cheerfulness in her reserve, clinked glasses with Min Congda, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Looking at the girl at a close distance at this time, Min Congda realized that he had underestimated her beauty just now. He thought she was very beautiful so he would come here, but he didn't expect to be so beautiful.

"Just now, I couldn't see it clearly in the dark. I didn't expect it to be so beautiful at a close distance. Wow, if I knew how beautiful it was, I might not dare to come over to strike up a conversation."

Compared with her, the heroines I met at the ONLY bar were all vulgar fans. The little flame of self-confidence that Min Congda had accumulated was almost extinguished by this amazing beauty.

He immediately took a sip of wine into his mouth, and the strong taste of rum rekindled his confidence. He asked: "I am surprised by your beauty. What kind of group of partners can become friends with you? Can you introduce for a while?"

The girl nodded and introduced this group of young people. I didn't expect them to work in the film crew, but it's normal when you think about it. This is Los Angeles, and there are a lot of people who rely on the film and television drama industry chain to make a living.

"We just finished filming Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, based on the best-selling novel. We started in New York, went to Vancouver, Canada, the Las Vegas Strip, and went to the District of Columbia to shoot. Final work is done in San Francisco, we're done filming, come to Los Angeles to relax."

"This is Orla, she's the makeup artist. This is Daisy, she's doing the on-set stuff. This is Jimmy Williams, he's doing the sound, and this is Jack Abell, he's the show's director." One of the lead actors in the show, playing Luke..."

The handsome boy with blond hair sitting next to the girl turned out to be the actor of this show. Min Congda hurriedly asked: "Needless to say, you must be the heroine of this show. This movie will definitely be a hit! Because the actress The leading role is you, so I'll go to you, and I will buy a ticket to see this movie, the director and producer really have a good eye, and chose a box office guarantee."

After finishing speaking, Min Congda couldn't believe it was what he said, it was so flattering and fake.

There was a bright smile on the girl's face. Sure enough, women need to boast without thinking, no matter what the content is, the boast is over.

"I'm not a box office guarantee." She finally introduced herself: "My name is Alexandra-Anna Daddario, and I play Annabeth, but I don't know if my performance is good or not. ...I hope I don’t lose money so that I can continue acting.”

After speaking, everyone laughed. "Percy Jackson" is a well-known best-selling fantasy novel in the United States, and it is quite influential among teenagers in the United States.

20th Century Fox Films, which bought the copyright, shot the first film of this IP series this year, and wants to make it a film series comparable to "Harry Potter".

This film is looking for some young actors who are well-known but not very popular, just like the amateur actors of Harry Potter. If the movie can become popular, these actors will also become popular.

However, whether it is the influence of IP works or the investment and intensity of film production, "Posey-Jackson" is far behind "Harry Potter".

Min Congda didn't know about these things, and his thoughts were all on Daddario.

"Da Leo, a good name, and it really matches the person."

The gray tights perfectly outlined D'Addario's plump figure. When she raised her head to drink, she felt like she was about to come out.

"By the way, you haven't said what your job is? Are you a chef in Chinatown?" Daddario asked Min Congda.

Daddario started joking with Min Congda, indicating that he had a good impression of him.

Min Congda said: "I'm not a chef in Chinatown, I'm a chef in Staples. I can't cook, but I can form a team and play games."

Of course, I'm a terrible team cook, Min Congda added inwardly.

The blond-haired Jack Abel exclaimed in surprise: "Oh! You are that Smart! The general manager of the Clippers!"

Min Congda smiled slightly, yes, it is next.

"Are you Smart?" Daddario was also a little surprised, because in Los Angeles, this name has appeared quite frequently recently, even a little popular.

"Of course it's me. If I have the opportunity to go to Staples to watch the game, I will reserve the best ticket for you." Min Congda would not let go of such a good opportunity to be courteous.

Daddario's eyes flickered, and he said: "But I heard that you may be the worst general manager in NBA history..."

Daddario spoke quickly, and everyone thought it would hit Min Congda's pain point, making the atmosphere awkward.

Unexpectedly, Min Congda laughed and said: "Why do you say it is possible? I am the worst general manager in NBA history. Letting a team disappear is my greatest ideal!"

Just when everyone didn't know whether Min Congda was open-minded or joking, there was a sudden commotion in the bar, followed by screaming and fighting sounds. A certain corner of the bar was in chaos, and some people scuffled together!
"Crack!" The wine bottle shattered on the ground with a crisp sound, and the originally noisy but orderly nightclub immediately fell into chaos.

Min Congda and others sat in a corner that was not affected.

"There's a fight, let's watch the excitement!"

Min Congda picked up his wine glass and got up to watch the excitement, while looking for Randolph and Davis with his eyes.

After searching for a while he found it, and they were fighting!Fight against a few big men of the same size!
"Damn it, I'm still watching the excitement, I'm going to become the excitement!"

"Stop fighting!"
